My Steampunk Factory: Llewellyn Industries of New Babbage

Llewellyn Industries at Night

and in the Sunset
......it just charms me New Babbage....
almost as much as this Aquamarine Hat...from the Laughing Academy

it's almost as charming as the whole ensemble....which comes with the hat!

But nothing beats the charming & beautiful large stopwatch by Miss Viv Trafalgar which stands in the front yard of The Great Obolensky Metal Steampunk Tree House of New Babbage. Rumours of a hidden pirate rum-smuggling cave & urchin hide-out under the tree house are quite spurious!

All part of the Llewellyn Industries Holdings in Wheatstone Waterways, New Babbage
Open to the public year round, visitors welcome!...please take the welcoming note card when offered and enjoy the complimentary tea, rum & cookies and a few hidden gifts for the observant & curious.
here's the SLURL to Llewellyn Industires main factory, & look for the Teleporter to the Treehouse on the main floor.
Cheers!

Don't Drink & Sleigh..OR...Poor Santa: That Last Absinthe Shot Did It!

Oh dear...i told Santa not to have that last mug of Capt. Cannonball's Rum!....Followed by Capt. Smythe's Spiced Rum!.....then he poured us another two cups of Nog...Mmmmm Rummy Nog....and then ok...this was my idea...Absinthe shots...heh heh it's GREEN!

let me back up....he came by the factory....saw the forts & the bar set up...and well, we got to talking and ...then we started drinking a wee bit...swapping stories, cracking jokes...you know, the usual! he would pour...i would pour...he would give me a hard time about that one raid on that spanish ship a few years ago...i would tease him about stoopid creepy marionettes...

and i guess that was too much for the big guy cause he tried to fly off and SMACK right into Szuster Gassworks...he crawled off the burning sleigh...the elves jumped the gun and chalked around him where he lay....and well, it's a good thing he's immortal.....

Santa! when i suggest Absinthe shots...just say No! Don't Drink and Sleigh!

afterwards...i rode the carousel...Weeeeeee!

Oh you wonderful people of New Babbage, you're very welcome!!!..but you beat me to it, for really! ...it is *I* who should thank you! i was nervously excited about my first event in New Babbage and apart from a bit of frantic scrambling due to ((SL weekend login borkyness)) putting up more bottles on the bars... i do think it went rather well!.....

and only a bit of a hangover...erm, deep sleep, ((RL brunch w/the parental units)) kept me from thanking you earlier! i have been so thrilled to have joined this town and each and every person who came or contributed made this the best event i've ever given in-world. i need no other Christmas gifts for that filled my metaphorical stocking to it's brimfull!

i'm keeping up the snow forts, floating ice dance floor, and the full bar for the entirety of the holiday season.......for you never know when impromptu snow fights might want to errupt....so feel free to gather your friends and come on over and pelt or dance away anytime!!!
